Their offense has taken a significant step back this year, ranking 20th in points per game (21.0) and 12th in yards per game (336.5), with an anemic running game producing just 77.2 rushing yards per game and two total touchdowns, both dead-last in the NFL.\u00a0<strong>Dak Prescott<\/strong>\u00a0is still fourth in the league with 267 passing yards per game, though his six interceptions are the third-most.<\/p>\n<p>However, the Cowboys have not been efficient through the air or on the ground, ranking in the bottom 11 in both EPA\/pass and EPA\/rush,\u00a0per NextGen Stats\u00a0(subscription required). That has especially been an issue in the red zone, where Dallas has converted just six touchdowns on 16 total trips (37.5%), the second-lowest rate in the league.<\/p>\n<p>McCarthy, of course, is the rare HC on a lame-duck contact. Jones cited the wild-card loss to the Packers as the\u00a0reason why McCarthy is back without an extension.<strong>\u00a0Bill Belichick<\/strong>\u00a0rumors emerged at\u00a0different points during the offseason, and this figures to be one of the teams the coaching legend-turned-omnipresent media figure monitors ahead of the 2025 coaching carousel.<\/p>\n<p>The Cowboys declined to add high-level playmakers in free agency or the draft this offseason, re-signing\u00a0<strong>Ezekiel Elliott<\/strong>\u00a0instead of pursuing\u00a0<strong>Derrick Henry<\/strong>, who leads the league in rushing for the Ravens. Jones was asked about Henry on 105.3 The Fan and shot down any ideas that the All-Pro could have helped the Cowboys\u2019 offense.<\/p>\n<p>\u201c<em>Derrick is having a career year. I don\u2019t know if he\u2019d be having a career year in our situation<\/em>,\u201d said Jones,\u00a0via The 33rd Team\u2019s Ari Meirov. \u201c<em>We don\u2019t run that type of offense at all.\u201d<\/em>\u00a0Jones also blamed the salary cap for his inability to offer Henry a competitive contract, though his $8MM-per-year average was only the fifth-highest among running back free agent contracts signed this offseason.<\/p>\n<p>Dallas most recently suffered a 47-9 embarrassment at the hands of the Lions, who held the Cowboys to just 251 total yards and a measly 3.9 yards per play while committing five turnovers. They travel to San Francisco in Week 8 to play the 49ers on Sunday, where a win will be paramount to keeping up with the Commanders and the Eagles in the NFC East.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Jerry Jones\u2018 frustration with the Cowboys\u2019 offense boiled over into public criticism of the team\u2019s scheme under head coach\u00a0Mike McCarthy\u00a0and offensive coordinator\u00a0Brian Schottenheimer. \u201cWe\u2019re designing bad plays,&#8230;
